Chapter 248: Yield

Chapter 248

"Back then, the old man had just taken office as the secretary of the Criminal Department, although there was a family behind him to support this factor, but he was also full of enthusiasm and wanted to do a great job and reorganize the laws of the Han Kingdom, but the affairs of the Yi family made the old man unable to realize his ideals."

Tang Xiang recalled the events of that year, and now he feels regretful when he thinks about it, "Leaving the sect leader, although the old man doesn't know why you are interested in the Dahan Country and the Ichisuke family, the old man regrets to tell you that in fact, the old man doesn't know much about the fire in the criminal department, but ......"

"Why should Mr. Tang sell Guanzi, this seat is precious time, let's get straight to the point."

Ling Li said lightly, but his mind was raised like Su Li and Ling Qinglan, and they all knew that what they were going to talk about next was the main thing.

"The case of the Yi family's destruction is indeed full of suspicions."

Tang Xiang didn't talk nonsense anymore, and said directly:

"Everyone in the Yi family was killed with one blow! And the death is not consistent, the murderer is not a person, it is more like a disciplined organization, speaking of which is not afraid of the sect leader's blame, the old man thought that you did this for the first time! ”

As he spoke, Tang Xiang stared at Ling Li's reaction, but he didn't see any clues.

Ling Li let out a chuckle, which fell on Tang Xiang's ears quite harshly, "Although this seat is not a bad person, the Yi family has never had anything to do with this sect before, so why should I have enough to eat and support myself to destroy people?" ”

Ling Li's tone was full of disdain, but he said it sincerely, he couldn't fake it, although Tang Xiang was old, he still had this ability to distinguish.

He was silent for a moment, and suddenly changed his words: "Actually, the old man and General Yi Qing were old friends!" ”

Ling Qinglan's breath stagnated when she heard this, and she subconsciously clenched her fists.

For the first time in 14 years, he had heard his grandfather's name from someone else.

"Back then, General Yi Qing was General Ling's most important right-hand man, he was indeed extremely smart, his brain turned very fast, and General Ling would also ask for his opinion on large and small decisions in the barracks, so to speak, although Yi Qing was only a deputy general, he played an extremely important role as a military advisor in the barracks."

Ling Li's expression also became serious, there was very little information in his mind about his grandfather and father, and he didn't know the situation in the military camp back then.

Before he was assassinated, he hadn't really regarded himself as a member of the Ling family, so while making a scene, he concentrated on cultivation, and all he was thinking about was how to return to Earth.

Now, with his continuous exploration and understanding of this world, his thoughts of returning to Earth have long been dispelled, if it is based on the scientific tone of Earth, this and Earth may not be the same dimensional space, and no matter how much he cultivates, he will not have the ability to break the plane and go back.

After thinking about it for a long time, Ling Li settled down, and saw Tang Xiang continue: "The old man had an encounter with Yi Qing, and later became a confidant who talked about everything, of course, with my status in the Tang family at that time, I definitely couldn't be related to the people of the Ling family's faction, so in order to protect myself, the relationship between the old man and him has always been hidden underground. ”

Speaking of this, Tang Xiang's face became extremely complicated, "It is precisely because of this that the old man can survive to this day." ”

Ling was touched, the corners of his eyebrows jumped, and he suddenly spoke up, his tone was cold, "Is the Yi family's destruction really inseparable from the Ling family?" ”

Tang Xiang was slightly stunned, then nodded and shook his head: "It seems that the sect leader is a person who understands, but the old man is just guessing, after all, the Ling family's male died too strangely!" ”

"Since the Yi family was destroyed, the Ling family has been in danger repeatedly, and in the next six years, from General Ling, to the son of the Ling family, he died one after another, and finally stopped at the second son of the Ling family, the old man is also strange, if you really want to reduce the power of the Ling family, why not remove Ling Ping as well, leaving a waste of three less, the Ling family will naturally not be able to make waves."

"Jiang is still old and spicy, and Mr. Tang is really as wise as a torch and can see through it."

Although Ling Li's words were compliments, Tang Xiang couldn't hear any emotion of praise, as if this person only had ice ballast in his words, not mixed with any personal feelings.

He couldn't help but feel a slight chill in his heart, his brain turned around, anyone who spoke would have feelings, and the previous apocalyptic master slowly disdained arrogance in his words, of course, but now he suddenly lost his emotions, so he was naturally suppressing something.

But even if he sensed the abnormality, based on this clue alone, he would definitely not be able to guess the relationship between the Hidden Demon Sect's sect leader and the Ling family.

"The sect leader is really ridiculous."

Tang Xiang didn't dare to ask for credit, he understood that Ling Li was not really praising him, and immediately continued with a knowing face, "One day not long before the Yi family destroyed the door, the old man had a private meeting with Yi Qing for a drink, and at that time I noticed that there was anxiety between his eyebrows, and the whole person was not in the right state. The old man asked again and again, but he kept silent, and finally I didn't know if I had drunk too much, so he suddenly told me...... He discovers a big secret! ”

Ling Li raised his eyebrows, "What secret?" ”

The old man also asked so at the time, but he quickly sobered up, and seemed to regret that he had leaked his mouth, and then kept silent, only saying that he would tell him in detail after the matter was completed, and later, the Yi family was destroyed.

Tang Xiang was full of remorse, he still remembered that Yi Qing's face was extremely shaken back then, if he persisted a little longer, maybe he would be able to know what the secret was, but unfortunately Yi Qing was dead, and no one would ever know this secret.

"After talking for a long time, does Mr. Tang want to say that he knows such information?"

Ling Qinglan's slightly cold voice came out, he was full of anticipation, but Tang Xiang told him this, and his heart was disappointed mixed with a lot of anger that was teased by Tang Xiang.

"Lord Qinghu, calm your anger!"

Tang Xiang knew the current situation, and fell from his chair without dignity and fell to his knees, "Later! After the Yi family is destroyed, the point is the point! ”

"Okay Qinghu, don't scare the old man, if you are scared out of a problem, who will I find out about it?"

Ling Li waved his hand, which was obviously a reprimand, but in fact, he was admonishing Ling Qinglan to be more calm at this time.

Ling Qinglan took a deep breath, relaxed, and stopped making a sound.

"Alright, let's move on."

Ling Li said casually, holding Su Li's right hand in the palm of his hand with both hands, rubbing it gently, as if his attention was not on the information at all.

Tang Xiang didn't dare to slack off, and immediately began to say the main point: "At that time, the old man saw a lot of firewood and fire oil around the Yi family, and he knew that the group of murderers must still want to set fire to the corpses, so the old man immediately decided to transport all the corpses back to the criminal department overnight, and personally inspect Yi Qing's body!" ”

There was a faint glint in Su Li's eyes, his only confidant and friend died in front of him, and it was hard to imagine how Tang Yuan quickly calmed down and made a decision.

Although the old gentleman now gave up his dignity in order to preserve the family, which was quite lowly, it did not prevent her from admiring this person.

"Yi Qing was disfigured after his death, it was difficult to tell anything from his expression, his lips and teeth were broken, his fingers were also broken, and he died a painful death!"

Tang Xiang's voice changed a little, as if he recalled the tragedy of the year.

"Someone tortured him, and wanted to know something, if nothing else, he was destroyed because of that secret! I wanted to go to the original site of Yi's house to investigate, but the criminal department suddenly caught fire, and I was knocked unconscious by a sneak attack from behind, and when I woke up, it was already my own home. ”

"All the corpses of the Yi family have been burned to charcoal, and it is impossible to tell who is who, even the warehouse where the case files are stored has been reduced by half, and countless people have died in the criminal department!"

Tang Xiang lowered his head in pain, "Such a big accident has never happened since the founding of the Great Han Kingdom, I received the news at the time, and my mind was full of ends, I can't bear such a big crime at all, maybe it will affect the entire Tang family to die!" Then, the next day, the old man received a secret summons from the palace! ”

Su Li's eyes wandered, fourteen years ago, the emperor of the Great Han Kingdom was still Dongfang Xiao.

"At that time, Dongfang Xiao had just pacified the civil strife in the palace for less than two years, and his style was very radical, and the old man entered the palace with the idea of losing his head, but what he saw was a monarch with a kind smile on his face."

Recalling the face saint back then, Tang Xiang still shuddered, "He promised me that as long as I stop the affairs of the Yi family forever, the matter of the fire in the Criminal Department will not be investigated, and my traces in the Criminal Department will also be erased, allowing me a bright career!" ”

"So you agreed?"

Ling Qinglan's voice was cold, even with a chilling killing intent.

Although in that case, a person would agree to save his life, but he was a member of the Yi family, and his position was different, so he was destined not to consider Tang Xiang's feelings.

Surprisingly, Tang Xiang shook his head.

Yi Qing is the only confidant and friend in the old man's life, although his life is on the string, but the old man was ...... Still hesitated. ”

Tang Xiang's expression was calm, what he said at the moment was true, and he naturally had a clear conscience, "My hesitation, in Dongfang Xiao's eyes, is naturally not a good thing, he quickly issued an order, a ...... Inhumane order. ”

Tang Xiang's voice became difficult, "He arrested all the people of the Tang family who served in the Criminal Department, and every time I hesitated for a quarter of an hour, one of them would be beheaded!" ”

Ling Qinglan was finally moved when she heard this, and she restrained her previous killing intent, faintly feeling guilty, if Tang Xiang really struggled for the Yi family, he would be kind to the Yi family, but he even wanted to kill Tang Xiang......

"Dongfang Xiao didn't give me much time, he said a quarter of an hour, but the eunuch immediately grabbed one person and beheaded him!" Tang Xiang's expression was hideous, "The old man almost rushed up to fight with him, but the eunuch caught Lei'er and pressed it on the guillotine!" ”

Ling Li's eyes narrowed slightly, Tang Lei was the same age as him, which meant that Tang Lei was just a two-year-old baby at that time.

"That stupid boy is dying, looking at the eunuch who grabbed him, he can still laugh!"

Tang Xiang scolded and scolded, but his voice couldn't stop trembling, and he shouted like crazy:

"He is the old man's first grandson! The old man can't wait to hold him in the palm of his hand, how can he bear to go back underground as soon as he arrives in this world?! ”

"So...... I gave in. ”
